A lengthy discussion ensued at Grand Bend Council Monday night over a noise problem in the village created by a cottage full of tenants. A report of council indicated that there were as many as 20 to 30 persons oc- cupying the cottage on some nights. Several neighbors who have been disturbed by the alleged noise and unsightliness of the property brought it to the at- tention of Grand Bend Council, Acting on the complaint, Reeve Bob Sharen laid charges under a village by-law which controls noise and the matter will go the courts. Among the problems, neigh- bors have reported that garbage has been strewn outside the cottage and large quantities of empty beer cases have been stacked up as well. Councillors Simpson and Baird felt that' responsibility for the noise and unkemptness of the premises belonged with the landlord."Ifhe (the landlord) has told them to leave then he should go to the O.P.P. and have them kicked out", Baird remarked, "The owner is now responsible as far as I'm concerned." Reeve Sharen pointed out that the current landlord just bought the property in question this summer, which includes the Anchorage Inn and several cottages behind it. He said that it was his understanding that the new landlord had already had several discussions with police and has done just „about everything within his legal means, The weekend, by all accounts, was the worst for weather that this area has had all summer. Rain on Friday and rain on Saturday. But Sunday morning the clouds parted almost as if the organizers of the Ausable River Marathon ordered it. The second annual Grand Bend Canoe Race began at the GreenWay bridge and ended at Manore Marina in the Grand Bend harbour, a total of 8 miles.

According to Sharen, the public health inspector had, been called to inspect the cottage around the time of the sale and certified it as fit. The tenants had already been living there, the new landlord inheriting them along with purchase of the property. Coun. Simpson noted that it was dif- ficult to know what the inspector was going to certify as fit premises at any given time. Council also learned that the Liquor Control Board had no power in the matter because even though the Anchorage Inn is a licensed tavern, buildings on property adjacent to a tavern do not come under the Liquor Act, even where the landlord owns both premises. Commenting on Sharen's remark that• a minimum stan- dards by-law was required, Simpson noted that every property in town would have to come under it and anyone in contravention would have to be made to comply. Peter Macauley, a new at- torney to act as village solicitor was asked to look into the matter of a minimum standards by-law and report back to council. Reeve Sharen and clerk- treasurer, Louise Clipperton will testify in court with regard to the validity of the village by-law controlling noise when the case against the "undesirable tenants" comes up on the docket.
